Warmth please.....

In few days time, Horacio, my bro, Marianne and i would be miles and miles away from the frigid weather of new york. it's been like 9 degrees outside (according to my body). yesterday was a crazy day fro me and horacio. had to cancel lunch on him (again) just so we could finish what we need to accomplish before we get warmth. two more days on the floor and we are out of here... for sure they would torment us before leaving, as always is the case whenever you are looking forward to something, something just happens that would make you really wanna leave for that vacation. right now, i actually am procastinating... being lazy to pack my luggage... have to go to the bank as well too before going to work at 3. actually i have piled up the clothes that i think i would be using... only for horacio to go through it later and talk me some sense and put back the other clothes. i know, i am not new in packing and traveling, but i really tend to over pack for unknown reasons. i remember going to boston overnight, i couldn't even carry my "overnight" bag!!

anyways, i really am looking forward to this trip... my cousin's getting married (and i'm gonna be the only bridesmaid!!), bought some stuff for the bridal shower (kinda helping my sis in planning it)... the bridal shower is gonna be held like the second day that we get in manila... then four warm, relaxing days in bohol... then the wedding itself, then off for a 24-hour trip to iloilo, then off again for an intro to dive in batangas... i know, it's a crazy schedule...

i can't wait to see my little cousins, neice and nephew... i can't wait for jackie's reaction as soon as she sees horacio and marianne... i can't wait for her antics, for her "opinion"... can't wait to hear dad try to communicate with marianne and horacio... can't wait to spend time with family from germany and switzerland, for cousins that i haven't met or seen for the longest time...

i can't wait to have all the yummy food, seafood, fruits... shakes... jollibee.

i can't wait for my toes to keep warm and stop getting the numb feeling i get.

i can't wait.

What Jennifer Lynn Means

You are fair, honest, and logical. You are a natural leader, and people respect you.
You never give up, and you will succeed... even if it takes you a hundred tries.
You are rational enough to see every part of a problem. You are great at giving other people advice.

You are friendly, charming, and warm. You get along with almost everyone.
You work hard not to rock the boat. Your easy going attitude brings people together.
At times, you can be a little flaky and irresponsible. But for the important things, you pull it together.

You are very intuitive and wise. You understand the world better than most people.
You also have a very active imagination. You often get carried away with your thoughts.
You are prone to a little paranoia and jealousy. You sometimes go overboard in interpreting signals.



You tend to be pretty tightly wound. It's easy to get you excited... which can be a good or bad thing.
You have a lot of enthusiasm, but it fades rather quickly. You don't stick with any one thing for very long.
You have the drive to accomplish a lot in a short amount of time. Your biggest problem is making sure you finish the projects you start.

You are loving, compassionate, and ruled by your feelings.
You are able to be a foundation for other people... but you still know how to have fun.
Sometimes your emotions weigh you down, but you generally feel free from them.



You are wild, crazy, and a huge rebel. You're always up to something.
You have a ton of energy, and most people can't handle you. You're very intense.
You definitely are a handful, and you're likely to get in trouble. But your kind of trouble is a lot of fun.

You are relaxed, chill, and very likely to go with the flow.
You are light hearted and accepting. You don't get worked up easily.
Well adjusted and incredibly happy, many people wonder what your secret to life is.

You are a free spirit, and you resent anyone who tries to fence you in.
You are unpredictable, adventurous, and always a little surprising.
You may miss out by not settling down, but you're too busy having fun to care.
